    Hang in there girl, times are very hard on everyone. Your husband is sounds like he is trying as hard as he can, just be a good women and light a fire under his a@#. Us guy like to keep the stupid switch on way to long sometimes. But it takes a good girl to remind us what we have to lose. And if you are realy thinking of the big D, do it because of how you feel, not over money and work. Its harder to make it on your own then with someone, you just have to put it to him. Goodluck.

    Hey IROC hang in there we are O/O and it is BAD out here a good week (good not great or normal) and the a bad week...money troubles tend to change everyines personalities.......see what you can do to cut down the phones...our bill runs about 127/month and we run 4 phones on it and then I have the house phone at abt 30/month......eveything else seems to be in line.......see if you can get a local driving job like a dump truck it will keep your work history alive at least. Can you go OTR w/him on Schneider?

    Wish you the best. And try not to let the 6 months go by if you can do anything about it. I am not even going to try and tell you what to do about your man. We all have to make those on our own.

    Sorry to hear your problems. With all you've said the deal breaker for me is when you said said your husband does not like your son. I can't tell you what to do but to me family is the most important and if that is not solid then it's time to move on. It sounds like you've got a plan so good luck and I'm sure you'll find what you need sooner or later. There is one thing I can tell you and that would be to get your own bank account and start letting him get money from his account and not you.

    I want you to know that I can relate. But following your story over the past couple months, it all seems to trace back to a dog. I just really hope it appreciates it!
